LONDON, July 2, 2022
/PRNewswire/ -- ME+EM has been named one of Britain's fastest-growing private companies in
The Sunday Times 100, ranking 57th.
Previously ranking 81st, this acknowledgment reflects the
enormous success that the brand has experienced over the past two
years, including £46m in sales and a 3-year CAGR of 61%.
Off the back of this exciting global growth, in Spring 2022
ME+EM raised £55m from investors, led by Highland Europe.
With 30% of sales now coming from international markets, ME+EM
aims next to accelerate its international expansion, predominantly
in the US. In 2019, ME+EM launched its US website and began sending
its monthly lookbook to the States. Since then online US sales have
grown almost 700%.
To support this growth in the US (including the opening of
stores in 2023), as well as two other key international markets -
Canada and Australia - ME+EM expects to hire over 50
heads over the coming year.
About ME+EM
Founded in 2009 by Clare Hornby,
ME+EM provides women with beautifully-made, luxury clothing that
doesn't come with an extortionate designer price tag. In order to
achieve this, ME+EM operates as a direct-to-consumer business,
eliminating middlemen and wholesalers in order to provide
exceptional quality for an accessible price.
Delivered in 14 tightly edited collections a year, each curated
to serve the customer in that moment, ME+EM is built with busy
women in mind. 'Intelligent style' is the brand's mantra, and
informs a rigorous design process that provides flattering
top-to-toe outfits that function in the real world.
ME+EM launched with a range of luxury loungewear that quickly
evolved to include ready-to-wear and most recently, shoes and
accessories. But it was these origins as a loungewear label that
served ME+EM particularly well during the pandemic lockdowns,
becoming a customer favourite for luxury pieces to wear at home.
Fans of the brand include the Royal family, Helen Mirren, Cat Deeley, Erin O'Connor and Claudia Winkleman.
